Even in Dingle you can’t escape being tagged…

Seems like a viral thing is going around, and I have to blame ConorÂ for getting me involved. Still, I’ll be a sport, especially since I’ve had an attack of blogging laziness over the past few days, and this might get me back in the swing…

So, five things you don’t know about me, the ice cream man:

1. My brother SeanÂ and I used to share a house near Dingle, and when he decided to go and get married (and I got turfed out), there was naturally a custody battle.Â

After all, we both raised the two wee ones, whoÂ had grown up together since they were babies and had overlooked all their natural differences and propensities to become best of friends.

In the end,Â Sean and IÂ settled amicably. HeÂ got custody of the dog, and I the cat. We both get visitation rights…

3. I have a degree in philosophy. So why ice cream, you ask? Well, I could get philosophical about it, but instead I’ll just say it’s better than drinking a cup of hemlock…

4. Maybe it’s my philosophical nature, but I believe cats can be trained as well as dogs to do tricks. Of course, you do need infinite patience, but I’ve proven it is indeed possible.Â My latest project is to teach an old cat new tricks, and I thought it would be fairly winning if the fellow could beg. Don’t believe me?Â See the picture introduced as evidence…
